Description
Ventriculoperitoneal shunt is one of the most common procedure done by neurosurgeon worldwide. We present a rare case of delayed intracerebral bleed post VP shunt and discuss the possible causes of intracerebral hemorrhage post ventriculoperitoneal shunt and bilateral thalamic bleed. The presumed cause in our case was shunt induced disseminated coagulation profile.
